The inspiration for the tag is words and music, in particular a song by Diana Ross and the Supremes, Reflections.
The background started with a printed paper by Studio Light Memories of summer. I stamped with the large Musicality stamp and applied some crackle paste around a few edges, highlighting the crackle with Distress Ink in Walnut.
I added my feature stamp fading out the edges and the Reflection stamp, which you will note has lots and lots of words behind it, making it so perfect for both Words and the song I'm illustrating!
To finish I added a bit of faux stitching with a pen, having realised that my tag was too thick for my sewing machine!
Stamps used:
Docrafts: A5 Clear background Musicality
Paper Artsy: ESN07
Lost Coast Designs: Head in Hands

Great tag. Perfect for vintage neutrals.
ReplyDeleteI have not been getting the email notifications either so I tried changing my email address to my gmail email address and I got them eventually but they arrived in the spam box. Something is not right and I am glad you mentioned it because I was wasting time trying to fix what I thought was my problem.
Beautiful background on this tag! Love all the little details. Thank you for sharing it with us at That's Crafty! I.
ReplyDeleteLove the neutrals and the depth here - it's a beautiful tag. It really does look as though she's gazing at her reflection. Thank you so much for joining us on A Vintage Journey.
ReplyDeleteYes, same here... no email notifications and I'm guessing it's linked to the GDPR changes too. So frustrating that we hear nothing from Blogger. I've had a look on the forum and there are many people experiencing it - probably more than even know about it. I just assumed for a couple of days that nobody was commenting until I went to a post and found all these new comments!
